Grier's  Almanac. 

R©BfflRT  Gribr  died,  May  4th,  1848.  Not withstanding  the  fact 
thus  noted,  the  people  insist  on  having  Almanacs  made  by  Gricr,  and 
strange  to  relate,  Grier's  Almanacs  aro  still  published,  and  ignorant 
people  believe  the  celebrated  Almanac  maker  had  something  to  do  with 
the  calculations.  But  he  has  not.  lie  has  gone  where  they  don't  make 
Almanacs.  We  ask  these  lovers  of  Grier's  Almanacs  to  look  on  the 
title  page  and  see  who  makes  the  calculations — not  Grier,  certain. 


A  Beautiful  and  lasting  WliUcwasn. 

Take  a  quarter  of  a  peek  of  unslacked  limo,  and  pour  it  in  a  kettle 
of  boiling  water:  while  the  lime  is  slacking,  add  half  a  gallon  of  stale 
chamber-ley;  when  the  lime  is  perfectly  slacked,  dilute  it  With  water  to 
the  proper  consistence,  and  add  to  this  mixture 'one-quarter  of  an  ounce 
©f  Prueian  blue.  This  will  give  you  a  beautifal  and  lasting1  wash,  that 
will  neither  peel  off  nor  turn  yellow.  By  incroasinf(  the  quantity  of 
blue,  you  may  make  either  a  pale  or  dark  blae;  and  by  adding  yellow 
er  r%4.  echre,  you  may  impart  either  of  theeo  tints  to  suit  your  trwrte. 


To  Remote  Panes  of  Glass. — Put  soft  soap  on  the  patty  for  a  faw 
hours,  and  it  becomes  as  soft  as  if  just  put  on,  though  the  putty  had 
become  as  hard  as  a  stone.

STAftflaae. — Sheep,  as  well  as  horses,  are  sometimes  afflicted  with  the 
staggers.  It  is  occasioned  by  improper  food.  Oak  leaves  and  buds  are 
particularly  prejudicial.  They  bind  the  bowels  and  staggers  frequently 
follow.  To  cure  this  disorder,  dissolve  half  an  ounoe  of  assafoetida  in 
two  quarts  of  water ;  give  a  quarter  of  a  pint,  warm,  every  three  hours.

Starch. — Tn  making  starch  from  wheat,  the  grahi  is  steeped  in  cold 
water  until  it  becomes  soft,  and  yields  a  ruiiky  juice  by  pressure;  it  i*  ! 
then  put  into  sacks  of  linen,  and  pressed  in  a  vat  filled  with  cold  water, 
as  long  as  any  milky  juice  exudes.  After  standing  some  time,  the  fluid 
gradually  becomes  clear,  and  a  white  powder,  which  ie  starch,  remains 
at  the  bottom.

MareW4th. — Abraham  Lincoln  and  Hannibal  llamiin  elected  Presi- 
dent ana  Vice  President  of  the  LTnited  State*.  This  result  of  the  Pre- 
sidential election  was  viewed  by  the  people  of  the  South  as  an  assur- 
ance that  their  political  rights  in  the  Union  were  no  longer  to  be  res- 
pected ;  and  they,  therefore  resolved  to  assert  their  independence,  as 
our  forefathers  did  in  the  Revolution  of  1770.  and  set  up  a  Government 
for  themselves.  They  determined  first',  however,  to  try  and  settle  all 
difficulties,  by  an  effort  either  to  obtain  some  guarantees  frwh  the  Norili 
that  their  rights  would  be  respected,  or  to  separate  peaceably,  if  possi- 
ble. For  this  purpose,  offers  of  compromise  wore  made  by  Souther* 
members  of  Congress,  and  a  Peace  Convention  assemble*}  iu  "Wasbiag- 
ton  city;  and  Commissioners  were,  also,  Bent  to  Washington  city  from 
South  Carolina;  but  all  to  no  purpose.  Hence  the  States  now  «•■• 
posing  the  Southern  Confederacy  seceded  by  the  adoption  of  ordinances 
of  tecession,  which  were  adopted  in  State  Convent  ions  in  the  order  iu 
which  they  are  here  presented :
